Hotel Zone (Cancún)

Common card · No. 338455

The Hotel Zone (Spanish: Zona Hotelera) is a designated tourist district and strip of land on the coast of Cancún, Mexico. It consists of a variety of businesses, such as resorts, beaches, shops, nightclubs, and restaurants, aimed specifically at appealing to tourists. The strip itself is an island shaped like the number "7", running parallel to the mainland. This stretch of land is the predominant reason for Cancún's fame as a resort hub and tourist destination, and a majority of Cancún's economic income comes from tourism to this area. It has gained notoriety for being a favored place among college students for spring break partying while having a lower crime rate than the rest of Cancún.
